Comments:
Originally from the Central Valley, I was raised in Newark in the Bay Area. In 1998 I moved my family to Merced to continue my 24 year career in Long term Care.

When my daughter was 3 years old I took a job in a local nursing home. For the next 15 years I worked as a nursing assistant, in medical records and finally the business office.

I was offered the position of A/P – Payroll Consultant and spent the next 9 years in Long Term Care as a consultant and Corporate Trainer. The best part of my job was meeting new people and being able to provide the training they needed to be successful in their own jobs.

When I decided to make the transition to real estate, I took a temporary job at our local Gottschalks in the gift wrap area. After 6 months I was promoted to Area Manager. I enjoyed my job so much I ended up spending 3 more years managing the Men’s, Children’s, Lingerie and Junior’s departments. I not only worked with some incredible professionals, I also discovered a passion for great customer service.

I have been involved in Real Estate for over two years, with the last year and a half helping to make dreams come true as a sales agent in a new home subdivision.


Whether you are buying or selling, I would love to help you make your dreams come true, too. You can reach me at (209) 386-3880, email to tstrickland@gonellarealty or visit my website at www.teristrickland.com.
